Keith Caputo “Crawling” Video
For the past 6 years, I’ve been genuinely disturbed by every solo release by former Life of Agony frontman Keith Caputo. I don’t think the man knows how to write anything but incredible, intense, soul crushing music. After 7 amazing albums (including one with band Freax and a live record), Keith’s library of work is an overwhelming collection of emotional songwriting, eloquent lyrics, and eclectic arrangements.
His latest album, A Fondness for Hometown Scars (streaming here), features one of my favorite Caputo songs, “Crawling.” The track is Keith’s first single from the new album, and will soon have a Corin Hardy directed music video (The Guillemots, Keane). Keith has a very devoted following that’s strongest in Holland, and tours in and around that area of Europe often (both solo and with Life of Agony – who have staged somewhat of a comeback in recent years, including a stint on Epic Records). He’ll be touring for the majority of the summer and fall, including some August dates in the states (below).
If you have any plans for killing yourself and/or being born again, Keith Caputo surely has the perfect soundtrack. Do yourself a favor and listen to everything here.
